I really like the character of Jubal Harshaw...I find > his dialogue in the book to be very easy to follow...you know, that narrative voice > in your head? > I Recommend reading more Heinlein. In particular, "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" is considered one of his best. Other excellent books include "Time Enough for Love" and "Friday". Speaking of Jubal Harshaw, that character appears in several other Heinlein books... "The Number of the Beast", "The Cat Who Walks Through Walls", "To Sail Beyond the Sunset". Supposedly, these three books should be read in order after "Time Enough for Love" because there's somewhat of a continuity. I read them completely out of order so I need to go back and read them again. Check out these two links from the Heinlein FAQ for more good reading suggestions: http://www.nitrosyncretic.com/rah/rahfaq.html#0408 http://www.nitrosyncretic.com/rah/rahfaq.html#0409 GroovyMAME support forum on BYOAC
